glmmADMB: Generalized Linear Mixed Models using AD Model Builder
Dear R-users, Half a year ago we put out the R package "glmmADMB" for fitting overdispersed count data. http://otter-rsch.com/admbre/examples/glmmadmb/glmmADMB.html Several people who used this package have requested additional features. We now have a new version ready. The major new feature is that glmmADMB allows Bernoulli responses with logistic and probit links. In addition there

glmmADMB: Mixed models for overdispersed and zero-inflated count data in R
Dear R-users, Earlier this year I posted a message to this list regarding negative binomial mixed models in R. It was suggested that the program I had written should be turned into an R-package. This has now been done, in collaboration with David Fournier and Anders Nielsen. The R-package glmmADMB provides the following GLMM framework: - Negative binomial or Poisson responses. - Zero-inflation

Mixed model for negative binomial distribution (glmm.ADMB)
Dear R-list, I thought that I would let some of you know of a free R package, glmm.ADMB, that can handle mixed models for overdispersed and zero-inflated count data (negativebinomial and poisson). It was built using AD Model Builder software (Otter Research) for random effects modeling and is available (for free and runs in R) at: http://otter-rsch.com/admbre/examples/glmmadmb/glmmADMB.html I

conservative robust estimation in (nonlinear) mixed models
Conservative robust estimation methods do not appear to be currently available in the standard mixed model methods for R, where by conservative robust estimation I mean methods which work almost as well as the methods based on assumptions of normality when the assumption of normality *IS* satisfied. We are considering adding such a conservative robust estimation option for the random effects to

Nonlinear statistical modeling -- a comparison of R and AD Model Builder
There has recently been some discussion on the list about AD Model builder and the suitability of R for constructing the types of models used in fisheries management. https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2006-January/086841.html https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2006-January/086858.html I think that many R users understimate the numerical challenges that some of the typical

glmmADMB and the GPL -- formerly-- How to buy R.
Dear List, Some of you have been following the discussion of the GPL and its inclusion in the glmmADMB package we created for R users. I would like to provide a bit of background and include an email we received from Prof. Ripley so that everyone can be aware of how some might use the GPL to try to force access to proprietary software. I think this is interesting because many have voiced the

AD Model Builder now freely available
Hi All, Following Mike Praeger's posting on this list, I'm happy to pass on that AD Model Builder is now freely available from the ADMB Foundation. http://admb-foundation.org/ Two areas where AD Model builder would be especially useful to R users are multi-parmater smooth optimization as in larg scale maximum likelihood estimation and the analysis of general nonlinear random

Cross compiler taqrgeting Mac OS X
Hi, I have been asked to produce a binary of some software for somone running R on Mac OS X. I don't have a Mac and don't know anything about them. The sloution would seem to be to obtain/build a crsoo compiler on windows or probably easier on Linux i686. I would appreciate any advice on how how to go about this. I understand there are a number of different versions of Mac OS X. Are

How can you buy R? [Broadcast]
My understanding is that if a licensee wants to redistribute GPL code (or work derived from GPL code), then it has to be done under GPL as well, meaning the person must make it known to users that they can have access to the source code if so desired, and they can do anything they want with that code (including selling), but GPL must remain in force for further redistribution.

Do Users of Nonlinear Mixed Effects Models Know Whether Their Software Really Works?
Do Users of Nonlinear Mixed Effects Models Know Whether Their Software Really Works? Lesaffre et. al. (Appl. Statist. (2001) 50, Part3, pp 325-335) analyzed some simple clinical trials data using a logistic random effects model. Several packages and methods MIXOR, SAS NLMIXED were employed. They reported obtaining very different parameter estimates and P

Negative binomial GLMMs in R
Dear R-users, A recent post (Feb 16) to R-help inquired about fitting a glmm with a negative binomial distribution. Professor Ripley responded that this was a difficult problem with the simpler Poisson model already being a difficult case: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2005-February/064708.html Since we are developing software for fitting general nonlinear random effects models we

AD-MB problem in package:glmmADMB
Hi here, i recently notice the software built by otter company know as AD-MB tools . i explore a little bit this tools under the R Package for mixed logistics model. it is a very interesting tool. but i get several questions. first question: i tried the R code below, and have the error , i can run the code for switching the setting to impSamp=0 , it means i can only run the code under

singular convergence in glmmPQL
I am using the 'glmmPQL function in the 'MASS' library to fit a mixed effects logistic regression model to simulated data. I am conducting a series of simulations, and with certain simulated datasets, estimation of the random effects logistic regression model unexpectedly terminates. I receive the following error message from R: Error in lme.formula(fixed=zz + arm.long,random=~1 |

glmmpql and lmer keep failing
Hello, I'm running a simulation study of a multilevel model with binary response using the binomial probit link. It is a random intercept and random slope model. GLMMPQL and lmer fail to converge on a *significant* portion of the *generated* datasets, while MlWin gives reasonable estimates on those datasets. This is unacceptable. Does anyone has similar experiences? Regards, Roel de

glmm.admb - bug and possible solution??
Dear Dr Skaug and R users, just discovered glmm.admb in R, and it seems a very useful tool. However, I ran into a problem when I compare two models: m1<-glmm.admb(survival~light*species*damage, random=~1, group="table", data=bm, family="binomial", link="logit") m1.1<-glmm.admb(survival~(light+species+damage)^2, random=~1, group="table", data=bm,

negative binomial lmer
Hi I am running an lmer which works fine with family=poisson mixed.model<-lmer(nobees~spray+dist+flwabund+flwdiv+round+(1|field),family="poisson",method="ML",na.action=na.omit) But it is overdispersed. I tried using family=quasipoisson but get no P values. This didnt worry me too much as i think my data is closer to negative binomial but i cant find any examples of

help with glmmADMB ZI; function maximizer failed
Dear all, I am having some problems trying to run a GLMM model with zero-inflation using the alpha version of glmmADMB (0.6.4) using R (2.13.1) in Windows and I would greatly appreciate some help. My count response variable (number of birds: count) fits a negative binomial distribution and the explanatory variables are both continuous and categorical (species= 17). The three random effects are
